WW2 was brought by the humiliation and starvation of the German people by the European winners and by their own politicians, and Hitler easily capitalized on that making his rise to power a slam dunk.

People like to think that if they would have assassinated Hitler early on, WW2 wouldn't have happened, but that's wrong. That would have just left the power vacuum empty for someone else to capitalize on the German populations' grievances and start the war.

The history lesson is to make sure the masses of people are taken care of by their leaders, not to start censoring, imprisoning or assassinating political opponents who capitalize on the peoples' unhappiness.
